November 5, 2015 by Natasha Searls-Punter

On Saturday the 10th and Monday the 12th of October, Hawthorne & Heaney were offering a free monogramming service for customers at Brooks Brothers.

Brooks Brothers was founded by Henry Sands brooks in 1818 America, and has since set up in other countries including the UK.

There was a range of colours available, and a selection of styles to chose from.

These are some of the examples of what was being demonstrated at the London Brooks Brothers shop.

If you would like to have anything embrodiered or are thinking about holding an event of your own and would like us to be involved, please get in touch.

Hawthorne & Heaney at Harrods

October 8, 2015 by Natasha Searls-Punter

From Friday the 2nd to Sunday the 4th of October, Hawthorne and Heaney spent the weekend demonstrating luxury hand monogramming at the Hardy Amie’s concession in Harrods.

The Autumn/Winter “Made to Measure” event at Harrods focused on customisation in premium men’s tailoring, showing how different items can be personalised. Hand monogramming presented by Hawthorne and Heaney is a skill that requires attention to detail, patience and practice in order to produce pieces of the high quality that was shown over the weekend.

The font was designed for the event by Hawthorne and Heaney, and looks stunning when embroidered onto one of Hardy Amie’s shirts. There was a range of different colours and positions of monogramming presented during the weekend demonstration, including this subtle white on white example of a cuff monogram.

Hawthorne & Heaney Events presents… Monogramming @ Farah Vintage

June 20, 2014 by Natasha Searls-Punter

The Hawthorne & Heaney team have been busy making themselves known again this weekend by getting out and about with the public. This event was with Farah Vintage, a very well established mens wear brand, in their Covent Garden Store. Farah Vintage was established back in 1910 in Texas making blue chambray shirts for 35cents! The Utilitarian functionality of their items made them popular with the 1970’s Mod culture, an aesthetic that can still be felt today in their collection. This connection with music has been consistent as they have been sported by bands such as Pulled Apart by Horses, Bombay Bicycle Club, Editors and many more.

In honour of Fathers Day, our team was furiously embroidering personalised initials onto shirts for those who wanted to add the personal touch to their gift. The Farah customers were willing to be quite individual about their monogramming, choosing interesting placements for their initials along side the traditional cuff position. Our embroiderer used the traditional transfer technique to apply the design, then works into the shirt on the frame free hand. You can see the stages of the process below:
